The Good:
Visuals and art direction were amazing.
Acting was excellent.
Homage to comics.
The Bad:
Plot was bland. It did nothing that hasn't been seen before. On top of that, some threads went nowhere, others could have been resolved by better communication (which is a lazy tactic used far too often in a lot of films). When things were introduced, you could immediately predict when and how they would come back later in the movie as a plot point or set piece every time. I did appreciate the more serious tone.

Unlike Malcolm X’s famous statement, “a man who stands for nothing will fall for anything,” several female characters should’ve fallen out of the final draft, because they stood for nothing other than the hero’s plot importance. The screenwriters chose even greater wrong turns in the dialogue because they were too fearful to take risks, resulting in bland morals pulled out of Intro to Screenwriting 101. Such morals included: “No man is perfect,” “You get to decide who you will be,” and, “Fight for what you love.” Uninspired, much? Heck, even the Stan Lee cameo turned out dull!

The key player, Chadwick Boseman, proved his onscreen believability in 42, except here, the identity in his sleepy eyes mimic everyone else’s. The second-hand man, Michael B. Jordan, got his earned universal acclaim in Creed, but here puts on a forgettable mannerism any idiot could play to the same results. Then T’Challa’s love interest, 12 Years a Slave’s Oscar winner Lupita Nyong’o, expresses no memorable active girl power besides her first scene wrongly swinging a gun like a club. These indistinct portrayals appear very distanced by the way they talk at each other rather than to each other, as if they just glanced last-minute at the script before the camera rolled.

Observe as they butcher both the sequence of major plot points and the villain's otherwise understandable motivations (black freedom and vengeance), often with the cheap, lazy, typical Hollywood blockbuster writing and acting of 90% of his lines and character development. This was a below-average Marvel flick from our friends at Disney.
